I loved this place! The hotel is right in the heart of Taormina, making it easy to walk everywhere. It is a very charming and cute property. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything we needed. The room was clean and comfortable, and the location was perfect for exploring the town, restaurants, and shops. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Taormina.

CENTRAL AC. The AC was horrendous here as the system is on a central system. Our room was extremely hot and the speed is only on one setting. The staff was extremely welcoming and great attending us. The room was big and very nice. Hotel was about a 2min walk from the local center. Only complaint was the AC as it gets hot inside the hotel rooms and Taormina.

The hotel was in a great location with cool art throughout it. The view was amazing, the breakfast good, and the staff helpful. For an extra fee, they have valet parking with a private company that makes it easy to drop luggage at the hotel. I will warn that there is a restaurant next to the hotel that had loud (bad) live music and crowd until very late. You may want to check if they have a room in a quieter part of the hotel.

The hotel is in a fabulous location, just minutes from the pretty streets filled with shops and restaurants. We booked a sea view room which didn’t disappoint as we could also see Mt.Etna and the Greek theatre, a beautiful view that you could never tire off. The room was very clean and the beds comfortable, lots of storage and plenty of toiletries snd towels provided. The room included a mini fridge but could be improved by having tea & coffee making facilities also.
Breakfast was nice, with a lot of choice perfect if you have a sweet tooth. The decor around the hotel is dated but overall we were very happy with our two night stay.

Property was very dated but clean. It’s very central located. Walkable to any attraction and in the middle of shops and restaurants.
The only negative really was they have a beautiful terrace they could use for breakfast and they keep it closed. If I didn’t have a room with view( which I paid an extra €40 per day ) the only place to have a view was at the last floor from the bar. Which was only open in the evening.
Staff was very professional and accommodating with all our needs. Parking was also very convenient.

We enjoyed the location, the breakfast and the building itself. Especially the balconies that overlook the main shopping street. However, of the 3 rooms our group reserved, the levels of comfort differed significantly. Some of us had air conditioning while others rooms felt warm all night, despite the air being on. Some of us had comfortable, soft beds, others had hard and uncomfortable beds. Some showers were very small and others fine. Like most small hotels in Italy, it really was a gamble on which you would get.
The staff however was very kind and did try to help with the room temperature. The terrace bar was under construction but the lobby bar was a great amenity to have with a pleasant bartender.

The air condition unit in my room was very old and did not work. Alberto kindly moved me to another room for 1 night but he could not do it for more because there was no free room. Thus I had to open the large windows for the nights and sleep without cover. That did not solve the problem because of extreme humidity due to the rain.

Very convenient location. I would highly recommend a taxi to / from the train station or airport. But once checked in, you can walk to everything! The hotel is old and the A/C wasn’t working very well. There was a HORRIFIC noise from the plumbing that would drive you crazy if you were there for any extended period. But we spent very little time in the hotel & honestly loved this stay. It was so convenient & had all the basics.

Average. It was advertised close to Corso Umberto. It was about 100 stairs to the Corso. The street in front is too narrow for car service to pull up to. We had to drag bags up and down to top of street where car could pick us up.
Beds were uncomfortable. We asked for a refrigerator for in room. Got one the 2nd day there. We had to go to a grocery store and get ice to keep meds cool. No restaurant on-site for evening meals.

Great hotel in a prime position

This hotel was in an excellent location for exploring Taormina, especially being able to access the back door which led right out to the Corso Umberto! Staff were very friendly and helpful and spoke good English ,which was helpful to us. Our room was a good size with plenty of storage and the adjoins bathroom was quaint, although the shower was a bit dated. Everything was very clean and housekeeping was efficient. The little balcony overlooked the sea in the distance and although we could hear music from local bars and restaurants it wasn’t invasive. The buffet breakfast was good and plentiful.
The only disappointing thing was the airport shuttle which was on the website at €50 each way. Staff were amazed at this price when we showed them and we had to pay €140 for a private taxi.

I really enjoyed my stay and thought it was great value!
Location is impeccable and literally 70m from the central square of Taormina. Staff was super polite and helpful whenever I needed help

Overall very clean throughout with a stunning rooftop bar on top of the hotel. Rooms are a bit “vintage” but that gives it a better vibe anyway.

This place is a real gem - but unassuming at the same time. Its an Art hotel and the artwork didn't always suit my tastes but everything else was amazing....great price, buffet breakfast included, really polite/helpful staff and a cool roof top bar with amazing views over the whole town. And the best thing, their secret backdoor exit lead right down into the centre of town! Perfect!

I really enjoyed my stay here. It’s above the Main Street of Taormina and about a 15 minute walk from the bus station (uphill!)
The hotel has a lovely reception with 24 hour staff.
The decor is perhaps a little outdated but I found it charming and more importantly, it was well maintained and clean. I loved the wardrobe in my room.
Bed was comfortable and the room is air conditioned so perfect in the summer heat.
The shower was excellent. The hairdryer was the standard “tube” style common pre 2000 so bring your own if that matters to you.

My balcony was so cute, looking out towards the sea. It was overlooked but I didn’t mind that.

The electrical outlets in rooms are awkwardly with light switches, so if you use an adapter it keeps turning the lights on. A very minor and non problematic gripe.

The staff were so friendly and helpful.

Breakfast was great, a selection of breads and cakes, plus cold cuts, yoghurt, cereals and juices.

I would definitely stay again!

The Hotel itself was okay very clean and staff were very friendly. However are room was not so good. It would have been okay for 1 or 2 nights but it was terrible for a week. Room 307 is dingy noisy and has the smallest shower in the world. The curtain didnt go fully around or to the floor so every shower the whole bathroom was flooded. Because if noise we asked to be moved but that was a NO too busy. Didnt bother to complain about bathroom because of this, but it really isnt a good room. Dont let this put you off staying here but if offered the dungeon with smallest shower in the world, tell them a definite no no. Unless your happy to clean floor everyday and have the curtain stick to your bum.

Hotel was very nice. Great location. Excellent breakfast. Excellent cleaning. Reception staff very pleasant, only issue was our English to Italian was not the best. Side view room was very small, once sea front room became available we changed and room was beautiful. Overall very good hotel and would come back again.

Crappy but great location so wait for a deal

The mattresses in room 420 were so old they were concave (one more than the other) I asked the staff three times (in Italian and in English) for either a mattress topper (they had none), a newer mattress or to be moved to another room. I was told all the mattresses were like that. Our friend in room 322 room said one of his was bad too and one wasn't too bad. His room had a bad sewer smell so he spent most of his time out on his patio with furniture riddled with cobwebs. Our room had a tiny balcony that fit only 2 chairs with no room for your knees so if you are wanting ocean view (as we had paid for) the partial view in this room might not be what you expected. The hotel itself is faded granduer and would actually be nice if anyone cared to get new mattresses, cleaned the balconies every now and again and did something about the sewer smell. It is a great location inside the pedestrian zone - which is its only selling point (and the breakfast is pretty good with ham, cheese, boiled eggs, yogurt, breads, pastries, etc) so if you insist on staying here because of that than wait for a deal on the rooms (like less than $100) and be sure you don't stay on a floor lower than the 4th.

2 nights en-route across Sicily.

Nice spot with Sea views,but terribly difficult to locate....you have to go into a one way street...the wrong way...and reverse out...there is no right way to get there.
No parking,which surprised us,as it says it is available,but you have to drive elsewhere and hope you can get it.
We couldn't as everyone was double parked at the location we were sent to....we ended up paying 50 Euoros to park for 2 nights!
Nice room,decent breakfast and lovely views,but access and parking was not easy.

Excellent Location in Taormina

Hotel Vello D'Oro is a charming older hotel with whimsical architectural touches, filled with unique artwork, right in the centre of Taormina. It is easy walking distance to numerous restaurants, shopping and historical sites. While the hotel should update its windows for sound insulation and energy efficiency, our room was clean, had a comfortable bed and the view from our balcony down to the town square, the sea and Etna were wonderful. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The scenic path to the church in the rock begins nearby and we also walked to the outstanding ancient theatre and wonderful Castelmola from the hotel. There is no need to move your car during your stay to see everything Taormina has to offer. If you are wanting to park at the hotel, reserve ahead for one of the few parking spaces and be prepared to squeeze your car into a tight spot after backing down a narrow one way street the wrong way. Better to park in the parking garage Porto Catania, take the garage elevator to the street level and walk to the hotel. Be prepared to lug your suitcase up steps within the town. This situation is not unique to this hotel in Taormina. All in all, we completely enjoyed our stay here and highly recommend this hotel.

They provide options to the beach which is nice because it is far . I didn't use it but can be convenient. I would definitely stay here again

Our worst nightmare realised !

This hotel was meant to be the romantic climax of a two week tour of Sicily.It failed on almost every level. Our sea view room with bidet turned out to be neither meaning we are owed a refund. The staff were unhelpful and abrupt to the point of rudeness. No forewarning was given to the need to park in the multi-storey. The electricity connections did not cater for European adaptors, Loud music from the restaurant kept us awake until midnight. A breakdown is needed of £50 extras prior to booking. Our worst nightmare realised !

Amazing view and Location!

Hotel Vello D'Oro was amazing......the location is fabulous - right off the main pedestrain street. the top floor terrace was unbeatable for views over the sea and to Mt. Etna - I spent many hours just relaxing up there. My room was very clean and the housekeeper did a great job keeping the room well organized. The buffet breakfast was fine - I'm not a huge breakfast person.....my only \"complaint\" was that since I didn't use the A/C - mosquitoes came in and bit me while sleeping....but I figured it out and then closed the door to the balcony at night. Also - the restaurant next door has live music until about 11 pm - I enjoyed it so it didn't bother me....but if you tend to go to bed early - it may be a factor.

Great location

This hotel had the best location! The view from the rooftop bar was great and I was surprised they also had an outdoor terrace you could have breakfast on with the same ocean view. It was about 40 steps down to the main road where all the attraction is. There was a restaurant just under our window which played music until midnight so be aware of that but if you close your window it's not bad. The music was quaint. The breakfast was nice & consisted of breads, juice, hard boiled eggs, yogurt, cereal, meats & cheeses. The only bad thing was that we wanted a double bed but got 2 twins pushed together. We asked to change it and got the same thing

Great location!

The hotel is very nice and clean and even though it's a few steps away from the town centre, it is really quite at night.. Parking is a problem in Taormina, you need to book a parking space with the hotel as it only has 4, if you don't manage there are two big car parks in town. Breakfast was a bit disappointing, not much to chose from.

Poor Hotel

We are a couple and asked for a double bedroom but were given a single bedroom with a narrow single bed in it. Staff agreed that they had made an error with room allocation but said they had no more rooms available and couldn't change the booking. After much 'discussion' however, they finally 'found' a double bedroom for us. Room was very basic and very loud music from restaurant outside, til around midnight - 1 a.m. Many facilities in hotel broken e.g. wi-fi not working; air-conditioning broken; call bell to reception (from rear entrance door) not working. Breakfast very uninspiring and basic - little to choose from. Not a dreadful hotel but not a particularly good one either.

The best value for the money hotel in Taormina.

This hotel has been situated perfectly, with magnificent view on Ionic sea. It is located in the city center, just above the main city square. You can hear the music from the caffe, but not after midnight. It is not loud, mostly Italian songs, quite expected for the location. Hotel is clean and cosy. Furniture is rustical, but functional. Staff is kind and correct. Food (breakfast and dinner) were good.Due to travel itinerary, I had to change two different rooms. Although the first one was smaller with smaller terace (the second one was huge and room as well), both prvovided similar view, comfort and joy. I think it is the best value for the money hotel in Taormina.

Fantastisk beliggenhed midt i det hele. Trænger til renovering - det er en tidslomme fra 30-40 år siden. Super udsigt fra tagterrassen og venlig og kompetent betjening, men utrolig synd at de ikke gør den indbydende. Morgenmaden var decideret ringe - meget lille udvalg, træls brød og mange kager. Personalet var sløvt og slet ikke servicemindede. De burde alle fyres.
Alt det negative ophæves dog af beliggenheden. Tæt på La Napoletana med byens bedste pizza - de laver nok også 3-400 om dagen. Om aftenen de hyggelige trapper med levende musik hos La Scala.

Hotellet har några tydliga plus, men helhetsupplevelsen blev tyvärr ganska svag. Det bästa var läget. Det är centralt och nära till butiker, restauranger och sevärdheter i Taormina. Priset var också lägre jämfört med många andra alternativ i området. Frukosten överraskade positivt. Den var inte lyxig, men klart bättre än väntat. Rummen var välstädade och personalen var artig.

Samtidigt märks det att hotellet inte har renoverats på länge. Det är slitet, gammalt och rummen känns väldigt enkla och inte särskilt tilltalande. Basic är verkligen basic här. Vårt första rum hade en trasig dörr till terrassen som inte gick att låsa, men vi fick byta rum direkt när vi sa till, vilket var bra hanterat. Tyvärr luktade det avlopp i rummet. Det fanns ingen AC att styra själv eftersom den verkar styras centralt under vissa delar av året, vilket drog ner komforten. Poolen saknades eller var avstängd på grund av renovering, och även takterrassen var stängd.

Sängarna var inte särskilt sköna och ljudnivån störde nattsömnen. Det skramlade utanför när det blåste och dörrarna mot korridoren isolerade dåligt mot ljud, så man hörde folk gå förbi, prata och dra väskor.

Sammanfattningsvis: bra läge, städat och okej frukost, men för många brister för att jag ska kunna rekommendera det mer än som ett budgetval och stå ut med bristerna.

Der Empfang war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend, das Hotel und die Zimmer sauber. Sehr zentrale Lage, es ist alles zu Fuß erreichbar, Restaurants u.a. Geschäfte bzw. die Fußgängerzone. Einzig, aber das weiss man, wenn man die Bewertungen liest ... in der direkten Nacharschaft befindet sich eine Musikkneipe, da wird es jeden Abend doch laut. Da man sich vorher aber informieren kann, sehe ich das nicht als Mangel, aber ruhig ist es abends daher nicht.

Nydelig utsikt!

Nydelig utsikt over Taormina og Etna fra den store balkongen. Stort rom med relativt nyoppusset bad.

Vi savnet minibar/kjøleskap på rommet. Grunnen til at vi ikke ga toppskår på miljøvennlighet er at vi fikk nye håndklær på dag 2/2, noe som selvsagt var deilig, men ikke miljøvennlig. Vi savnet også muligheten til å kontrollere temperaturen/airconditionen på rommet.

Hyggelige folk i resepsjonen, men litt dumt at de ikke var til stede de to kveldene vi kom tilbake rundt midnatt og kunne gå rett inn uten at noen var i resepsjonen. Anbefaler hotellet å innføre automatisk lås og dørklokke slik at resepsjonen ikke er ubemannet, for vi kunne ha forsynt oss av alle romnøklene bak skranken, noe som opplevdes som litt utrygt.
